Serving v0.23¶

🚨 Breaking or Notable Changes¶

Change the default post-install job to use sslip.io rather than xip.io. #11298

💫 New Features & Changes¶

The stats scraping in the autoscaler is now sensitive to the EnableMeshPodAddressability setting. A restart of the autoscaler is required for the setting to take effect if changed. #11161
The state keeping in the activator is now sensitive to the EnableMeshPodAddressability setting. A restart of the activator is required for the setting to take effect if changed. #11172
Tightens the heuristic for mesh being enabled in the service scraper. We now expect all errors to be related to mesh (i.e. 503 status code). This prevents accidentally falling in to service scrape mode when errors are encountered for other reasons. #11174

🐞 Bug Fixes¶

Added schemas to all CRDs. #11244
Changed the rollout behavior of application deployment changes (due to Knative upgrade for example) to never have less ready posd than required. #11140
Rate limits digest resolution (10 QPS, retry back-off 1s to 1000s) to prevent exceeding quota at remote registries #11279
Revision replicas now shut down 15 seconds faster. #11249
The activator proxy now recognizes the EnableMeshPodAddressability setting. #11162
Update the User-Agent used during tag resolution #10590

Remove APIServerSource, ContainerSource, PingSource and SinkBinding v1beta1 APIs #5319

💫 New Features & Changes¶

Multi-tenant, channel-based brokers now have improved filter performance for Triggers with few or no filters. #5288

🐞 Bug Fixes¶

Eventing Extensions¶

Apache Kafka Broker v0.23¶

💫 New Features & Changes¶

In Kafka Broker, now the Kafka producer will wait for all ISR replicas ack. #824
In Kafka Sink, now the Kafka producer will wait for all ISR replicas ack. #827

🐞 Bug Fixes¶

Fix out of bounds in unordered offset manager. #814
Accept "PLAIN" as a valid sasl.mechanism secret value. #855,#840

RabbitMQ Eventing v0.23¶

🚨 Breaking or Notable Changes¶

requires messaging-topology-operator version v0.8.0 to be installed as well as cluster-operator version v1.6.0

🐞 Bug Fixes¶

Conformance tests for Broker now work
If a Broker / Trigger is deleted but there's no secret to talk to the rabbit cluster, we now remove the resources and log that rabbitmq resources might have been leaked. This happens only when not using the Rabbit Cluster Operator. This left undeletable resources, so this change seems more user friendly. #271

Update Eventing Source PingSource API to v1beta2. #1299

Fix for serviceaccounts "default" not found flaky issue. #1312
Fix number of instances *int32 type in describe commands. #1312
Use fully qualified test images. #1307
Fix documentation of the configuration options. #1297
Respect -o in list commands in case if no data present. #1276
